And just as a side note, the regular 6' snap leads will NOT be strong enough to hold a strong dog unless it is wearing a slip collar. I totally trust the slip collars and slip leads to hold our dogs, as well as the 6' leads when they're attached to a slip collar, but I WOULD NOT trust the plain 6' lead, attached to a regular collar, to hold a strong dog. I just wanted to throw that out there.

Inside me is a thin woman trying to get out. I usually shut the bitch up with a martini.

I just wanted to make sure people knew that the 6' leads are not strong enough to hold our dogs unless they are attached to a slip collar. Nothing has happened, I just didn't want people attaching these to regular collars and taking a DA pit bull out and about. If they are attached to a slip collar, or if it is one of the slip leads they are perfectly fine.

Michelle is going to get one made up for me when she gets some time. Right now things are kind of on hold as I'm sourcing other materials to make the leads with that will make them unbreakable. And the places I'm looking have dozens of colors to choose from as well. Working with a couple, waiting on samples and pricing from one. Once I figure out which seller I'm going with I'll start working hard on getting my name out there and everywhere!
